Travel Doesn't Always Have to be International
There is so much to see within our own borders in the United States.

While international travel is definitely a favorite activity of mine, I also make a concerted effort to see as much of our beautiful country as possible, whenever possible. To date I have traveled to 45 out of 50 states, missing Rhode Island, Washington, Idaho, Oregon, and Alaska. I have plans to hit all 50, don’t you worry!!
Don’t let the thought of daunting international travel sway you from experiencing the joys of travel, even if it is within our borders, and the bonus being you don’t need to get a passport if you don’t want one.
What kind of travel do you like to do? Do you prefer to drive or fly, or maybe you prefer the slower but still just as exciting travel of trains or campers or RV’s? It all depends on what kind of trip you’re looking to experience. Trains and campers create an entirely different trip, one that is not as focused on timelines and schedules, and more focused on the enjoyment of the experiences and the slower pace of life. But maybe you want to experience everything a city or area has to offer within a limited amount of time; there are options for both types of trips.
An experienced travel agent can help you figure out just what kind of trip you would like to take, and walk you through the trip planning process to make it as painless as possible.
Recently, I went to Buffalo, New York, for a concert and hockey game weekend, but I was able to get out and see Niagara Falls and experience one of the country’s greatest wonders. I have planned trips in the near future to Ocean City, Maryland, the Outer Banks, North Carolina, and Chattanooga, Tennessee. No matter what your likes are, I guarantee I can find you a trip that is perfect for your lifestyle!
